Hi guys;

Just finished this one...thought I'd post a few pics. I tried something a little different to get the right textured effect on the peacoat. I mixed black and blue acrylics to get the dark blue then after the basecoat had dried, I brushed on small areas of dullcoat then sprinkled black flocking powder. I couldn't take good enough pics to show how it really looks. In person, it looks closer to black than blue and there isn't the shine you see here. As is often the case, the eyes were a nightmare to do. The contacts the actor wore in the movie had a yellow iris with a red rim around it...that was next to impossible to paint on this kit but I gave it my best shot.

Thanks for looking;
Lee

Thanks very much...I'm glad somebody liked it!

I found the hair looked a tad too yellow so I redid the highlights...turned out much better
